……韦奇伍德（Wedgwood）做出来的东西不仅在技术上处于劣势，而且还是一种奇怪的文化大杂烩，其文化价值远不如中国瓷器。我强烈推荐李约瑟（Joseph Needham）的《中国科学技术史》（Science and Civilisation in China）第5卷第12分册，专门讲陶瓷技术：https://books.google.com/books?id=mabcHwmAD5oC
…what Wedgwood came up with was not only technologically inferior but also a strange cultural mishmash of influences with less cultural value than Chinese porcelain.

……古代中国研发出的技术令人震撼，更何况其中大部分早已被中国人自己遗忘或视而不见。过去几年的一个重大发现就是李约瑟那部真正史诗级的《中国科学技术史》（Science and Civilisation in China）。该书始于1954年，目前仍在编撰中——全书尚未完结，共7卷27分册。西蒙·温切斯特（Simon Winchester，也是本帖提到的《完美主义者》的作者）写过一本极好的传记，……
…developed in ancient China are staggering, the more so as they'd been largely fogotten by / rendered invisible to the Chinese themselves. A find of the past few years has been Joseph Needham's truly epic Science and Civilisation in China. Begun in 1954, still in production -- the series is not yet completed, 7 volumes, 27 books. Simon Winchester (also author of The Perfectionists, mentioned in this thread, has an excellent biography,…
去查查李约瑟的《中国科学技术史》（Science and Civilisation in China）吧，它会让你对中国古代科技的发展产生绝对震撼的认知。平心而论，当时的中国人也基本不知道科技曾经发展到了何种地步（该项目始于1950年代，目前仍在推进中）。……
Look up Joseph Needham's Science and Civilisation in China for an absolute mind-blowing realisation of the development of Chinese technology. In fairness, the extent was largely unknown to Chinese of the time (the project began in the 1950s, it remains in process).…
……提到的只是一个小样本集——这刚好卡在正态分布数据大样本统计的门槛上，而这里的数据点很可能根本不符合正态分布。如果要看更庞大的发明集合，李约瑟的《中国科学技术史》（Science and Civilisation in China）或许能提供一个有趣的底子。这部历时半个多世纪的27卷巨著（仍有数册在编）极其详尽地记录了中国数千年的技术创新，细节详尽到令人发指。……
…mentioned are a small set -- that's just at the threshold of large-sample statistics for normally distributed data, and the datapoints here may well not bbe. For a larger set of inventions, Joseph Needham's Science and Civilisation in China might provide an interesting basis. Under development for over half a century, the 27 volume work (several still in process) details thousands of years of innovation in China, in excruciating detail.…
李约瑟的《中国科学技术史》（Science and Civilisation in China）不得不提，虽然你可能不想把全套都买下来。它始于1954年，现在已经出了27个独立分册，还有好几册在筹划中。https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Science_and_Civilization_in_...
Joseph Needham's Science and Civilisation in China needs mention, though you might not want to buy the whole thing. It was begun in 1954, and now runs 27 separate volumes, with several more still planned. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Science_and_Civilization_in_...
